Dear Elsa,
I would like to know if Scorpio males can stay with someone if they are not truly in love. I sometimes get the feeling a Scorpio will stay in a bad relationship rather than being alone.

I would say a Scorpio man (or woman) could easily stay with someone they don’t love although I think you’ve got the motive wrong. Scorpio would stay for the resources the person provides be it money or some other form of energy.
Consider the Scorpios who lurk here. Is it because they love me?

I was at Ground Zero on Wall Street yesterday. Though it might be a bit pre-mature, I felt like I was witness to history in the making. In a square, not far from where “The One World Trade Center” is erupting into the sky, a ragtag group of old and young, left and right, black, white and variant shades in between were assembling into some sort of vastly intelligent and hyper-cooperative entity. I was struck by the raw, primal, tribal immediacy of it.
At the center of it all was a space carved out for speakers to address the crowd. They would say a line and the entire crowd would repeat it, word for word, sow that everyone could hear what was being said without amplification. This method of organic amplification arose when early on, dissenters and…

I was talking with a client about the astrology of attractive celebrities, just chat, a tangent, but it got me to thinking.

This makes for a good way to investigate our own issues with attraction.

The Moon is in Scorpio on this very interesting day. The Sun is exactly conjunct Mercury in Libra while Venus is exactly conjunct Saturn, also in Libra.
Scorpio is concerned with energy exchange and with the enormous focus on Libra (equilibrium), it will be interesting to observe how the energy you put out, comes back to you.
In whatever case, there is tremendous focus on interaction with others so have fun mixing it up out there.
How satisfied are you with what you get back from the energy you put out?

| Venus Rising (The Star) 1890 by Jean-Leon Gerome |
I’m thrilled to introduce a guest post from Venus expert Laura Perkins – especially since Venus conjuncts Saturn in her own sign of Libra today.
What do you think of when you see a five-pointed star?Hollywood stars? The flag of the United States? Wicca, paganism, or witchcraft? The Virgin Mary? Gawain and the Green Knight? The military? Journeys to the underworld? The end of the Mayan calendar in 2012?

Ascendant in Libra♎: Libra rising folks possess grace, poise, and charm and are usually quite attractive facially. One of their defining physical features is usually their well formed legs. They take pride in their attire, and care for their physical body. Attractive to others, they are well liked. Mostly optimistic and sensitive, this Ascendant may be deeply hurt by others,

One of my wonderful readers is curious about the effects of Saturn in Scorpio transiting natal Pluto in Scorpio and this started me thinking about how these two outer planet heavy weights interact by transit. I actually have plenty of experience to draw on because I have Saturn conjunct Pluto in Leo natally with both sextile my Moon-Neptune in Libra. Because I’m older than dirt, Saturn is in the process of making its second trip around my chart!
Both Saturn and Pluto have dark reputations and many folks are apprehensive when they realize one [...]
